u are very welcome.
However I think you raise some solid points in there .
But you have to understand that there is a strategy to everything .
Between August 1 - September 30 Obama had 39 events in Iowa , Clinton had 15 and Edwards had 54 . Every campaign has its strategy , for Clinton she decided to focus on her job in the senate and get ready for crunch time oct - jan , you know the period when everyone including obama/edwards supporters on this site say people start payin attention , and she relied on her name recognition in to hold her up , I would say she has had a good return for the choice she made because she is either tied or in the lead with limited events in Iowa.
Obama chose to campaign heavily early on hoping to lock down the votes before clinton gets there and since he is new he had to introduce himself to voters , the trade off is all the votes he has missed in the senate , so I agree with his strategy too and it has brought him up in the polls , so they both picked the right strategy .
As for Edwards he has all the time in the world so he can move to Iowa and you can see that with the number of trips he has taken there , but he has to be worried because his polls are dropping a bit.
So they know what they are doing , this is the last and most important part of the race and you will see more of her in Iowa.
And, what do the polls show from August 1 - Sept 30?
There were 10 polls http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/ 2008/president/ia/iowa_democratic_caucus -208.html#polls
Three show Edwards ahead, one shows Obama ahead, and six show Clinton ahead. The RCP rolling average for the entire month of September is +3.5% for Clinton; and that number has grown throughout the month, the one poll with Obama ahead notwithstanding.
It's clear that Iowans are learning about Clinton from more than just visits. They are watching the debates and forums like everyone else.
BTW, Clinton will be spending a lot of time in Iowa this month.
I, for one, am very happy for her to continue banging the inevitability drum.
